This is going to hurt.

Context

FREEDOM

Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains

Routinized work produces efﬁcient and predictable outcomes

What happens when things become unpredictable?

How likely is it that people will not panic in such circumstances?

2009US1549

How did this happen?

Why didn’t Sully panic?

“The training provides pilots with important technical skills -- they can practice ﬂying crippled planes -- but it also teaches them something more important: how to draw on an optimal blend of reason and emotion. They learn how to ignore their fear when fear isn't useful and how to make quick, complicated decisions in the most fraught situations.”

“Flight crews don't panic because they've practiced staying calm.”

IA Conscious,Yet Unconscious

MASTERY

“ The Master leads by emptying people's minds and ﬁlling their cores, by weakening their ambition and toughening their resolve. He helps people lose everything they know, everything they desire, and creates confusion in those who think that they know.” Lao Tzu

How can you practice being free?

GAINST ETHOD

I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity Who uses a machete to cut through red tape With ﬁngernails that shine like justice And a voice that is dark like tinted glass She is fast, thorough, and sharp as a tack She’s touring the facility and picking up slack

ennis drills are repetitive and relentless. They teach the body to think, so the mind can do strategy.

Tai Chi combines discreet movements and a ﬂowing sequence that shape a tranquil mind.

There is nothing secret about yoga. The poses are well established across many styles. But it is a bottomless practice

Parkour is the attainment of human freedom through the confrontation of the built environment
